An Amateurs Success in Raising
Winter Squashes.

Last season friend gave me some seeds
OF Essex hybrid Winter Squash, after my
large garden was nearly all planted. The
soil in the only available spot did not
think suitable. it being on the clayey loan
side OF the garden. 1t had. however, been
filed I'D somewhat with rubbish when the
house was repaired. and contained some
mortar. bricks, stones. etc.
In this place planted three hills of seed
on the 4th of June. They came up quick
ly and we'll. Three plants we're left to
give to each hill. Knowing that Squash
require very rich soil. | put few table
spoonsful Of Bowker's fertilizer in each
hill at planting time.
By the 18th of the same month the
StripedsC ucumber Bug put in appearance.
and then saturated pieces of muslin in
kerosene and strewed them around the
hills, and at intervals of several days
would pour more kerosene on the muslin !;
after that thew were not troubled by any
enemy, but continued to grow and travel
very rapidly.
| must say never saw anything grow so
finely. The vines were yellow with BIOS
SONS, and soon the Squashes began to set.
There was quite severe drought for about
three weeks, and during that time gave
them water.
On October lst | harvested my crop;
took them from the vines, being careful
not to bruse hem, and laid them on ia
BILE in the cellar under the heater pipes.
There were some beautiful specimens. and
in all had l64 pounds.
And now, April l4th, have several yet
in fine state of preservation. two weigh
ing eleven and twelve pounds, respective
ly. Being such late keeper, makes this
variety very valuable. 1t is of fine quail
ity. although entirely different from the
Hubbard
Several years ago raised three hills of
Butman squashes in very much the same
kind of soil, but in rather shady spot.
Then the grubs in the vines near the roots
troubled them; these cut out and killed +,
and covered the cut with earth. | gath
cred in the fall 100 pounds, and they were
very handsome, and to my taste more
agreeable than either the Hubbard or Es-
sex Hybrid, being more like Summer
squash. But the Butman is not so valua-
BILE with respect to winter keeping; it will
keep only until about January.-E. w. L.,
